Last night one of the cable channels was playing Candyman and I actually watched it for the first time in what has to be at least a decade. Tony Todd is still a scary mofo!

We laughed, we cringed, we booed and we laughed some more, because it’s us. That’s we do. I always procrastinate with this list because I see dozens upon dozens of films each year and I’m always somewhat unmoved lately that is. I long for the days of Jason and Freddie. There are just no good …
Juan de los Muertos (original title) Directed by Alejandro Brugués 2012 How can a film go wrong when you include Sid Vicious crooning Sinatra’s ‘My Way’ on its soundtrack I ask you?
